>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?
HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC and PS5 where players fight against hordes of alien insects and robots to Spread Democracy. Players wage war on a number of contested planets, each with a different environment, completing as many objectives as possible within a procedurally generated area while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful operations a planet can be completely liberated, and the player base must cooperate to try to liberate the entire galaxy by focusing and combining their efforts as much as possible.

>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?
Released in 2015 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is the origin of the setting and basic gameplay formula of HELLDIVERS 2. The major difference is that HELLDIVERS is a top-down shooter, its mechanics being based primarily on Arrowhead's previous game Magicka.

The change to the Flamethrower was an exploit fix though :^)

>>491981150
The real question is, after defending Socorro will anyone come to Matar Bay's defense. It has even less HP than Socorro and the current botdiver numbers are enough to just barely lose it. Dump a couple thousand players on and the defense will succeed, though I surmise that nobody would complain about fighting on Matar Bay instead of Choohe for a few weeks.

Yeah I get you but ammo economy is good enough as it is for a backpackless non-stationary reload gun and anti-materiel rifles in general don't have magazines with a lot of ammo in general, real-life or games
Fixing the stupid sights and making it actually anti-materiel would improve its ammo economy way more than increasing the magazine size

The only way you can even be mistaken as right about this is because the ammo and ressuply for the slugger was fucked up on release. Everything about the actual gun is worse. "But the penetr--!!!" The incompotent AH devs admitted that was just listed incorrectly.

Unironically the core gameplay is fun, the game's style with the "last stand holdout" is kino.
Too bad the devs have been trying their hardest to ruin this game. If not for the shiteating devs then this game would be pure unadulterated fun.
A game doesn't need more than good core gameplay for people to play it unless they are a dopamine receptor fried tranoid.
You aren't a dopamine receptor fried tranoid, are you?

Dont remember the exact numbers but at launch, you got fewer ressups and started with less ammo than intended without HPO. I dont remember if they adjusted something else.
And i dont know why you would say something so inflammatory when the devs do things that "only a retard" would consider almost every patch since release.

Who knows. I wouldn't expect a big balance patch next week, likely some more fixes and shit.

Gamedev moves slow, especially professional gamedev in a commie ass country like sweden. What do you expect? This game took 6 years to make and they thought it would be smooth sailing live service where they pump out a warbond with a reskinned liberator and a couple skins every month, and some new stratagem that is ltierally some other stratagem with the projectile type changed. This entire plan failed, broke down, now they have DOUBLED the time between stratagems and warbonds, they have also DOUBLED the time between patches (used to be weekly, now it's bi-weekly) and who knows how stalled shit like the illuminates and new biomes are.
>>
>>491993690
>What do you expect?
i dont know really, i write machine code for an industry where an hour downtime is 50k and a software bug could result in fatalities, so forgive me for laughing over their childish struggle.

If you really want to crack the code you can look into conspiracies floating around this thread, like how the actual devs who developed this game left arrowhead a year ago, and the current devs are the 'live service' team of incompetent diversity hires, women, indians, and are utterly incapable of working with the old engine that the old arrowhead guys left for them. I think pilestedt even said he was the 'last man standing' from the original team that started work 6 years ago, or something like that.

i dont know about live service but this is how it is for every other title.
Usually a lot is outsourced and these contracts run out when the work is done. And the in house talent moves over to the next title.
Its not like AH had a massive lay off wave like relic, we would have read that in the news

>>491994927
He's a fat nice guy, he's going to try to salvage the game by putting direct community feedback into practice. I mean he's literally showing people reddit posts and going 'our players feel this right now' because the devs don't give a fuck or play the game at the highest tier. They are no joke going to balance d10 around youtubers because they can't finish d10 missions on their own, they test on playstation controllers because this game is designed to be a fun couch coop party game like the first game. I don't know anymore man I just really hope my faith in the guy isn't misplaced, I believe he really loves this game and is finally ready to give it the attention it deserves
>>
>>491994927
Swedish labor laws would make your suggestion literally impossible. And I just realized
If Alexus was onboard 6 months prior to launch, then was the game actually 2 tiers better pre-release?
>>

its about accountability and repercussions.
Can you guess why game dev is a save haven for troons and retards, despite being not the easiest desk job? because nothing happens to the studio no matter how much they fuck up

Pileofshit is not a "nice guy" he's just afraid of rocking the boat. If he was a nice guy then he would be making sure his game runs well, the players are having fun, and managing his studio in an organized and effective fashion.
Instead he's so much of a pussy that even when he's working with his team on balancing and new content, the moment he looks away they cram in nerfs within picoseconds. Then Pileofshit takes a vacation and cries on reddit that his team morale is low so they can't do their jobs. ???
Are these people even fucking human beings. Even a baby knows that if their situation sucks they need to change it, so they cry. Well fully grown swedes know their situation sucks so they cry too. But that doesn't fucking change anything.

He's not a nice guy, he's a nerd.
He's letting their inept PR team post from his accounts because he's too self-conscious about posting something that will rile up the twitteroids.
And that's why you always see the most out of touch yesman crap come out under his accounts. Post showing that whoever made them has not touched the game, has not talked with the developers and is completely out of touch with why twitter and reddit are whining.
Posts that, for some reason sound nothing like the guy from his presentations or live chats.

This tweet fucking infuriated me. Meta builds are in every game. In CoD, there was a certain 9mm AK build that was mathematically proven to be "the best". The difference is that you could use basically any of the low-tier SMGs in that game and achieve similar, maybe marginally worse results. In HD2, if you run a low-tier build, you get your ass kicked six ways to Sunday. The "meta" in HD2 is simply "shit that works".

I don't know what's worse, the possibility that they had didn't have the critical fixes on at least the back burner, in which they had full confidence in their game
Or the idea that they're going to release some big game changing patch in 2 months, have it be untested, have it fail as a result, and AH looks badder for fucking up its 2 month turn -the-game-around promise, in which case they haven't learned a fucking thing, not about the testing, nor their team's ability to fix problems

All Arrowhead wants at this point is a way to stop working on the game. 60 day gambit is only a means to stall, wear out the complainers, and formulate official statements about how they had so many plans for the game, honest, and they were really looking forward to working on them, but fate is a crucial mistress yada yada so tl;dr no illuminates stop asking us for shit k bye

Also adding enemies that further require you to specialize into a few weapons or strategems. All your anti-tank on cooldown? Mr. Impaler thanks you for the free kill. Now you're packing a Commando instead of your favorite support weapon so you don't get caught in a no-win situation again.

1 month later, devs see people are dropping many support weapons in favor of Commando. In response, they nerf Commando.

I wouldn't say it's a bad team game. I'd say it's a good team game that's sabotaged itself into 4-man solo play. Breaches/drops spawn per-player, so staying together keeps a constant stream of bullshit coming in every few seconds. Densely spawned armored enemies force you to bring a fuckload of AT, so one player is all you need to clear most objectives which require AT. Those combined make splitting up a massively more effective strategy. Fix that, and staying together becomes much more viable.

I feel like there should be rules that prevent a dev from working on a game they're not playing at the highest level. Because being extremely good comes automatically with developing the game. The nips that developed Mario Kart 64 can still perform lap times very close to world records, and that's nothing special, it's the norm, they had to play it a fuckton in order to ensure quality. Yes obviously if you can't solo d10s rivalling autistic speedrunners while scratching your balls you are not fit to decide what the game should and shouldn't pertain to.
>>
>>492021759
Bots are not immune to fire.
It's just that when things fire back you need them dead fast instead of relying on the ammo efficiency brought on by each pellet delivering a 200 damage DoT.

Also, bot reward headshots to a ridiculous amount, so taking a weapon that cannot be aimed is the real problem here.
>>
>>492021759
>Who the fuck takes incendiary to bots
The devs. You know, the people that yell "skill issue" and "git gud" when they nerf your crutches.
>>
>>492023982
The CM team has unfortunately never been any of those things. They have always acted as if whiners are completely in the right, have never had a good working relationship with the developers and seem to be working 20 hours per week if that.
That said, this part is vexing:
>I don't know, I wasn't told
Then fucking ask. It's your job to communicate.
>>
>>492023285
I read the replies. He continued using the same rhetoric the devs use of "just team play you don't need to do everything you're supposed to be weak" while constantly shit talking people for only using the most effective weapons and asking for more weapons to be similarly effective. Dude had big diff 5 energy.

Anon, he's just your run-of-the-mill contrarian. Anyone with brains realizes the most generic part of a franchise is the most popular due to being, well, most generic. This anon is simply too far off the deep end.

I accept that they're the most popular but I maintain that they're also the dumbest aspect of their universe. Weakest link. Regular-ass human characters have way more value in sci-fi/sci-fantasy settings. Characters that have been turned into mega-capable demigods by one way or thd other lose so many ways to be intriguing within the crazy scenarios that the setting got built for. tl;dr supermen boring

>In HD2, if you run a low-tier build, you get your ass kicked six ways to Sunday.
Yeah, low tier, like bringing the a Torcher and Stalwart to bots, or purifier to bugs. Problem with this hyperbolic community is they are completely unreasonable and feel that anything that isn't the absolute top performers is trash and unusable when there are plenty of builds that are viable even on D10, Hell D10 especially makes certain builds really good that are worse on lower difficulties. The AC or HMG for example are amazing on D10 bug precisely because they replaced all the weaker enemies with tougher versions of them, and those two weapons are both extremely effective against them. If you really think the only way anyone can reasonably expect to clear D10's without massive trouble is using the absolute best builds then it might be an unironic skill issue, sorry to say. And there really is a lot of that, people who only got to the difficulty they were playing at by leaning hard on the crutch of the railgun, or the incendiary breaker, or the flamethrower, and are now just pissed they got their crutch taken away and are struggling in a difficulty they never should have been in.

I don't know how much worse it is in germany, but what your pic says would still make it near impossible to get rid of someone without a costly legal battle.

Best case scenario you fire rogue/malicious employees like Alexus on the grounds of neglect of duties, but if they were still pushing content (broken content) they have a hill to fight on that will cost the employer far more in legal fees to fight over. Worst case scenario you give them up to 6 months of paid vacation, which absolutely sends the wrong message to other employees, who could ask for similar deals and just sink the whole company.

Socialism like this really is terrifying, it puts the most incompetent and shortminded people in positions of power.

>>
>>492050191
Bugtards see two shit planets they don't want to play on and then they log off. You're not going to force co-operation out of them even if you remove their autistic biomes they only play on. It's the exact same issue the last game had with removing a faction from the game when you beat them in a campaign.

As a regular ACgod on the lookout for alt builds to use the new and improved guard dog with, I'm liking the railgun a lot. But I also really feel how hard it struggles against super heavies and gunships. Wish the fully charged unsafe shot had AC's sweet little boom to it.
>>
>>492055143
I usually take rocket pods to handle tanks when running railgun for sure.

? you can change your crosshair color ingame
>>
>>492055143
if you have an RR/quasar/SPEAR/commando user on your team, the pen value allows you to quickly finish off anything rockets don't

one RR/EAT/quasar/commando shot and 1-3 RG shots full kills any non-strider superheavy
if i wasn't greedy i'd always take commando with RG because it allows you to trivialize all non-chaff, but i like seeing big kill counts so i pack reds instead
>>
>>492054681
AC and AMR as well as LC and HMG are still vastly better against gunships because they can spam.
>>
>>492055473
Yeah, railgun is definitely weak against gunships. It's not great for vent killing as well. But cutting through the hordes of hulks, devs, and striders (armored) makes it worth it.
>>
>>492055473
AC is probably still the ultimate gunship killer, but RG in the right hands handles gunships in <5 seconds per. On par with AMR, better/worse than LC depending on placement, usually always better than HMG
Wait till you start using MMG against gunships.

We should do some meme lobbies some day, like "all support weapons with backpacks can only be team reloaded" type shit.
>>
>>492055862
if someone finds the link we can run randomized strat lobbies
>>
>>492055453
Consider HMG emplacement. It's pretty much as potent as the strongest reds for mass killing and thus easier to skip an extra 500kg or barrage for.
>>
Recoilless 1 shotting tanks and cannon turrets when? Fuck the spear
>>
>>492055719
Yeah blowing out rocket chickens with the railgun feels fucking great. Oneshot nearly all the way.

my typical bot loadout is eHMG + RG + EAS + OPS (depending on team comp)

big brain poster. The most fun games I've played in online shooters were ones where you actually feel like regular infantry. You COULD be the most badass Navy Seal on the front line, but will die just the same if a 155mm artillery shell fired by a fat schlub lands in his lap.

For example RTCW (original) and Enemy Territory (mod) were great because players compete on actual skill because you had STANDARD issue weapons. AND like OP here, skill wouldn't get you out of the pure chaos of large scale military wars.

Like real infantry too, the gun you got was the gun you got. We all THINK in a total war existential struggle between nations, your CO is going to accommodate your need to have custom Hello Kitty parts for your gun like COD-slop. Pic related. This is highly unlikely and more proven by the current situation in Ukraine which unlike the usual American safari adventure colonial policing op, is actually intensive near peer total combat.

Lets give a shout out to some random heroes you've played with. I'll start:

zloyNafanya

Dropped in with this dude on D10 bots and D10 bugs. Kid was fucking unreal in this game. Communicated only in slavic on the voice chat to his shitter buddy, but used the voice wheel commands like a pro. Absolutely massacred every type of enemy single handed and consistently had the most kills, least deaths on both campaigns.

He really showed me the value of AC and napalm eagle airstrike on D10 bots. Didn't run from shit either. Had like 700+ kills on bugs alone.

Easily the best player I've seen. Wished I was recording the game.

We'll never see his likes again.
>>
>>492060131
it has 6k hp, it's so fat that can get depleted pretty quick
>>
>>492060131
nope, its always been like that.
>>
Did they nerf regular striders? I swear you couldn't kill them in one AC shot but playing some 7 today they were going down easy
>>
>>492060520
the explosion from the front isn't enough to kill them, takes two shots, unless they accidentally reverted the explosive resist buff they got
>>
>>492060313
I can't even remember the usernames of the people I regularly play with in here and I'm not paying attention to what everyone else is doing
>>
>>492060520
Yup I think so. I was one shotting them with the AC constantly.
>>
>>492060313
i only ever play with hdg and snitches get stitches
>>
>>492060520
It feels like rocket striders go down way easier by AC too. I think they lost a little bit of explosive resistance.
>>
>>492060692
I think they did because I was just shooting their crotch and they consistently went down in one shot
God I miss regular striders
>>
>>492061217
it was pretty consistent to one tap them with high-plate AC shots, so if that's happening they definitely fucked up, or intentionally made them squishier.
>>
>>492060313
hi zloyNafanya please stop throwing laurels at yourself while pretending to be someone else, it's cringe
anyone can rack up kills with the autocannon it's the everything slayer omniweapon, I once did 800+

It's fake. He's an actor. There were NO helldivers on Erson Sands at the listed recording period on Superpedia.
Word around this sector is that the R&D department had been cutting costs with the anti tank equipment at the time and the weapons simply didn't have enough power to kill Bile Titans at the time. Hell, they still do.
Ever notice how Titans sometimes just appear to be able to take upwards of five rockets to the face? How Chargers regularly shrug off AT weaponry and how the myth of "momentum" making the weapons do more damage is going around? It's all lies.

I got burnt by Fatshark with Vermintide 2 and Darktide, not buying anything from them again within the first 3 years.
When I heard Arrowhead where also Swedes I was worried but thought surely they could be different, and while they are better than Fatshit, fuck man never trust the swedes.

I don't think any planet actually has it yet but what he means is tidally locked so one side is always light and one side is always dark. So in theory a mission on the night side would be pitch black the entire time instead of the weird light/dark/dim cycles we have right now.

Every new day I wonder what swedish chucklefuck at Arrowhead thought it would be funny to make it so standing up was the first thing your dumbass character does when falling over and then also making it so you have no I-frames while you're stuck in that stunlock of an animation.

Sorry! We investigated having more than 4 strats (perhaps too many already!), and we found that, including the MAJOR balance issues these powerful tools create...

Hitting the rockets on the side seems widely inconsistent from my experience. Sometimes they explode an kill the chicken and other times the rockets just break off. And i cant tell if it has some weird hitbox or if its some bug.

if you deplete the rack's health before missile, it just breaks off without exploding

you have to specifically shoot one of the missiles.

the armor box doesn't have a listed HP value, but it clearly has lower HP than the main HP pool, i've pretty reliably popped the box with the AMR and still needed to shoot the neck stub to kill them. it doesn't happen with the AC for whatever reason though, chalk it up to them being buggy bullshit just like the barrager.

So the "main" is the big armoured box, and that 500 HP listed under the name isn't the HP of the "main" hit zone?

Since Escalation of Freedom, the game has been a mess to play regularly.
I won't even mention the balance nerfs and buffs or the older bugs that haven't been addressed yet, I'll just stick to listing everything added by the patch and that was mentioned or showed in the trailer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQl2BmhSCsA) that simply doesn't work in D10:
>Impalers can oneshot you randomly, can throw you into orbit when flinched or killed, the tentacles hitboxes are desynced and ragdoll you even when missing (very noticeable with heavy armor), sometimes they turn sticky, pick you up and launch you somewhere, the rate at which tentacles respawn after being damaged is also too fast and makes shooting tentacles a pointless waste of ammo
>Spore Chargers oneshotting light armored helldivers in a very big AoE around them is a garbage mechanic for an enemy that can only be seen when nearby it
>Barrager Tank cannot be killed or destroyed, only disabled, which makes it extremely annoying because it will keep being a oneshot and ragdolling hazard until it despawns or you destroy the missiles launcher and you need at least Armor Pen 6 to do that
>D10 doesn't feel like an increase of enemies, all that's increased is the rate at which heavy and elite enemies spawn
>Carrying Larvis sometimes breaks bug breaches and prevents them from spawning nearby or at all
>Rocket Striders simply deal too much damage and ragdoll you too far for a basic enemy that requires at least Armor Pen 3 to be killed or disabled, and they are everywhere. I wouldn't mind if it weren't for the fact that they can kill walking and firing rockets even after the pilot's cabin has been completely destroyed
>Laser turrets in bot Fortresses instant ragdoll comboing you or oneshotting while also requiring AP4-6 to kill because le ebin dark souls in space artificial difficulty, harrassing you with extreme precision from 200+ metres away and being able to lead shots

>>492121464
>>Barrager Tank cannot be killed or destroyed, only disabled
Eagle 110's or OPS seem to kill them easily enough. Outright kills, big explosion and everything, turret gone, the works. What the problem is is the turret and hull are completley separately entities and aren't properly linked like with the other tank types, so it doesn't get destroyed when the hull is destroyed.
>>
>>492123624
>outright kills
>mentions disabling
Just because the turret is gone, it doesn't mean the tank can't run around and run you off cover.
The bottom part can only be disabled and even if you destroy both parts, it won't despawn until it decides to.
Destroy both parts doesn't even accellerate the despawning, which means it's still alive.

>>
>>492124053
When the turret disappears the turret is destroyed
When the rear hull breaks open and the tnak stops moving and shooting the hull gun the hull is destroyed
Normally, for annihilator and shredder tanks killing one kills the other
The barrager isn't linked properly so killing one doesn't kill the other like it should, but if you kill both the tank is fucking dead

>even if you destroy both parts, it won't despawn until it decides to.
If it really is still alive it shouldn't ever despawn because live entities don't despawn unless there aren't any players around anymore. The fact that it is despawning in front of your eyes can only mean that it really is dead.

It's the audience the swede wished to cultivate.

>>492124053
>The bottom part can only be disabled
But there are plenty of videos of "disabling" the bottom part and having the turret remain alive, but then the live turret just poofs out of existence right in front of the players eyes when the "disabled" hull get culled. The only time live enemies get culled is when everyone nearby dies or leaves. The rear hull doesn't even have its own health pool. It bleeds 100% of all damage taken straight to the main HP. Blowing open the rear of the hull and "disabling" the hull IS killing the hull because they share the same HP pool.

AMRsissies, another Youtuber put our beloved AMR in C tier, citing very small mag capacity, versatility problems, and insufficient durable damage. Our response?

I joined it early on solely to get update info and delays because they dont post it fucking anywhere else.
Yes its fully of mentally ill troons and furries, like all discords end up being when they are made public and arent just a group of friends shitposting.
Dont worry the furries are handling all the customer feedback too :)

>watching e-celebs
It is C-tier, it's dogshit against bugs and you aren't killing anything bigger than a Hulk without a lot of luck or teammates to distract. Ultimately its only saving grace is its ability to headcap Devastators before they get close enough to do serious damage.

If your weapon is only usable against half the factions in the game, it's not getting anything higher than a B from me. And even then, with it being useless at close range, that's a further deduction from me. I'd still probably put it higher than shit like the Railgun, Airburst, or Stalwart though.

The AMR is an anti armor weapon that is dogfarts against Chargers, Titans and undeployed dildo dispencers.
It's fun to use against anything else, but those 3 being your common friend on high bugs makes the AMR excessively situational

Any bugs that the AMR can kill in one shot, the DCS can do it in one or two while also leaving your support slot open for a real weapon.

B-but Diligence CS already does that with a more than twice as big mag, less sway, and less recoil than AMR...

Comfy D8 bot loadout:
Blitzer
Mech (the one with missiles)
Spear
HMG Emplacement
Tesla Tower

Only really need to use the mech when advancing objectives or when in a pinch. Use emplacement and tesla tower for crowd control, use spear before rockets.

Tesla tower gets such a bad rap. It's actually a great stratagem for area control especially with how it can go through armoured enemies and hit chaff behind them. So many retards just run directly into it and cause it to chain through your entire team, making those same shitters believe it's a bad choice.
>>
>>492137682
It's fun, but the lack of range and absolute fargility makes it a real pain in the ass to use proper.
Rocket defence and some map layouts allow for solid "tower defence" gameplay with it, but otherwise it's a prolonged destructable mine dispencer.

I like the Tesla tower
I want to deploy one right next to Alexus and flick it on while he's dreaming of the 6-shot autocannon mag

>>492137682
Well placed tesla easily clears 2-3 bug patrols on its own, very useful for rear guard or areas you don't have good visibility. Throwing them behind a breach is a good way to keep team mates alive while luring bugs and heavies away from you. Requires good use of stun nades to prevent chargers immediately destroying it.
>>
>>492138035
Every sentry has that same problem with chargers. I don't think there's a single one with any amount of upgrades that can stop or survive a charger's charge.
>>
>>492137997
railgunbro please
I appreciate you and like to pick RG myself on occasion but you have shit durable damage
anything bigger than a hulk and you have to cower while Eagle-chan, your destroyer, or your mates take care of it
meanwhile autocannon can standoff against factory striders and blow out annihilator sinks in three hits
>>
>>492138178
I feel like chargers are especially drawn to tesla towers for no damn reason. Same with bile titans.
>>
Tesla tower should have same armor pen has arc thrower, but instead it's on par with blitzer.
>>
>>492138178
AC shreds chargers face first.
AC/Rocket placed on any elevation gets massive advantage over tesla in a similar dropspace due to range and better rof. Tesla only advantage is zapping multiple warriors in one strike.
>>
>>492138243
RG is just better than AC against bots I don't make the rules, this has been the case for ages
>you have to use eagles to take out slow, immobile threats!
how is this a downside? emptying the AC into health sponges is not fun gameplay, skillshotting with the RG is fun gameplay which is why it's more fun and ultimately more effective. if you're getting caught out with the RG and not having tools up to deal with big lads you're just bad, and the AC might be a multitool that can deal with everything slowly but I'd rather use the right tool for the job quickly. If you use the AC regularly and find the AC not only more effective but more fun to use then you're just not good at throwing pokeballs or something

>extra heavy shit that will need multiple shots regardless of weapon
RG kills every enemy in one shot up to tanks. And you aren't using the AC against tanks, who gives a fuck. I drop eagle airstrike on those slow moving fucks, same for factory striders
I just don't like bothering with factory striders in direct engagements, if you go underneath to try and kill them to the belly you get teammates wasting you with red stratagems and it takes forever to kill them even if you hit every shot on the eye. Best to throw pokeballs n walk away. Gunship might be the only difference but that just means there's 1 enemy that the AC is better at dealing with than the railgun, since the railgun kills berserkers, hulks, armored striders, all kinds of devastators faster than the AC with satisfying headshots that reward skill.
>>
>>492139210
The issue is not how poor it is to deal with tanks and striders, the issue is when everyhting else is on cd the AC is far more self sufficient than the RG.
>since the railgun kills berserkers, hulks, armored striders, all kinds of devastators faster than the AC with satisfying headshots that reward skill
Oh, so you just can't aim with the AC for the same headshots? Sounds like a skill issue to me.
>>
>>492139464
Except the AC has a worse handling stat and insane recoil for follow up shots so it's not really a matter of skill more like waiting for your crosshair to catch up with your skill, which you don't have to deal with when you use the RG.
>>
>>492139464
>Oh, so you just can't aim with the AC for the same headshots?
hulks take 2 headshots from the AC retard-kun, it's worse

>>492138679
It's your prerogative to be so mistaken. Railgun is extremely lacking in durable damage, aoe damage, rate of fire, efficacy over long range, and ammo management. Categories that AC excels at. Master of all trades.
>b-but you can trickshot with railgun
Same goes for the best long-range weapon in this game, the autocannon. Anyone with good aim severely limits themselves by skipping AC in favor of the lackluster alternatives. I have no idea why people are so easily pleased. You should demand your favorite gun to be a lot less limited than it is at the moment.
>>
>>492129880
Asians are actually whiter than white and should be actively discriminated against, according to all major universities.
>>
>>492138773
AC is far stronger in every scenario, 100% durable damage as opposed to AMRs 50ish, less dropoff over long distances, 3rd person reticle, better ammo pool. AMR's advantage boils down to the scope which simply isn't a big deal and might be added to AC in the future anyway.
>>
>>492139639
I can land both those shots in a third of the time it takes to charge up your toy gun
